Full description

Mentioned in Domesday Book and the Nomina Villarum.There were 9 taxpayers in 1329, 14 in 1332, 10 in 1428; and disputes over pasturage in 1591, which may have been a cause of the depopulation of the village.For maps of village see (S1).

Site of church marked by Ordnance Survey at TF 7479 3850 (1592 context 1) but R.R. Clarke (NCM) said there was no evidence on the ground and suggested that 7481 3839 was nearer the site, as marked on (S2).However Ordnance Survey say that their site is marked from (S3) which claimed that a mound with a yew tree on it stood on the site and produced human bones. The church was All Saint's and was in ruins in 1554; a priory cell had taken over the church but had been dissolved in 1415 and it had passed to Eaton College in 1436. See (S4).In 1593 the Dragge of Dry Docking (NRO) noted a cross on the site and another to the north.Site visited by E. Rose (NAU) 6 June 1979.

It is covered by woods and there is now no yew tree at the Ordnance Survey symbol.E. Rose (NAU)
